1 cup nonfat cottage cheese

Blend in blender until smooth. Use as you would milk or cream. The
consistency is thicker than milk so that sauces tend to be a little
thicker.

Categories: Cakes
Yield: 6 servings

2 cn Cherry pie filling

3/4 c Chopped nuts
1/2 c Melted butter or margarine

Layer in cake pan in order given (9X13 size) then drizzle the melted
butter over all. Bake at 350 for approx. 40 minutes.
